Hanalei Happy Place Estate (Main + Bungalow) Permitted Vacation Rental Property - TVNC#4339/1558 Transient vacation rental is located in the tsunami evacuation zone
Hanalei Bay, located on Kauai’s stunning North Shore, is two miles of beautiful sandy beach surrounded by majestic mountains with cascading waterfalls. Nestled between the mountains and the beach is the lovely little town of Hanalei. Between Hanalei Bay and Hanalei town, is Hanalei Happy Place – a two-bedroom main home and guest house studio designed by award-winning architect Bob Easton. If you are looking to get away from it all, this is the perfect destination!
Hanalei Happy Place is located on a quiet street with lush garden and pristine vintage-Hawaii views overlooking the historic Kanoa Fish Pond and tropical forest. The property itself is a beautiful garden setting with colorful, fragrant flowers and local Hawaiian fruit trees. The tropical surroundings will gently lull you into Polynesian paralysis where agendas will fade, time will slow and the laid back lifestyle will take over. Suddenly it’s slippers, boardshorts and bikinis. It’s the perfect place to unplug and enjoy the moment.
Hanalei Happy Place consists of a two-bedroom, two-bath main house that accommodates four with an attached but separate bungalow studio that can accommodate two. Each has its own kitchen and little perks. The main house has a private deck with gas grill and hot tub while the guest house comes with television and air conditioning.
Hanalei Happy Place Main House features a fully-equipped kitchen with plenty of space and utensils for food preparation, WiFi, portable A/C units in each bedroom, and laundry amenities. The kitchen also features a bar top seating area, in addition to two separate dining areas – one formal and one on a breezy screened lanai.
Hanalei Happy Place Bungalow has a queen-size bed, topped with light, airy linens. Guests have views of the surrounding tropical garden. The Bungalow has air-conditioning, WiFi, cable tv and laundry amenities for convenience.
Hanalei Happy Place features Hawaiian decor and Koa wood floors. This hidden gem is perfect for a picturesque getaway.
You can be carefree and car-free. It is an easy 100 yard walk or bike to Hanalei Bay beach or a 10 minute walk to Hanalei town from the property. Hanalei Happy Place or Hanalei Happy Place Bungalow is the premiere Hawaiian style rental to unwind and get away from it all.
*Note there are two units on the property. Both are vacation rentals. Hanalei Happy Place Bungalow and Hanalei Happy Place Main house.

Reviewer Comments:
Private, soulfully furnished, fast response for any questions or problems
The house is ideally situated in Hanalei. One block to the beach and a short walk to all of the shops and restaurants but still in a very quiet location. The backyard is beautiful, and offers a great hot tub.The management company was very responsive and helpful (only issue was an empty propane tank and they responded quickly). The kitchens in the main house and bungalow are a little dated as is the bathroom int he bungalow but this did not detract from the overall experience. In hotter months, it may be an issue to not have air conditioning in the living areas of the main house. Overall, I would happily stay here again.

You can tell this property is owned by a realtor. High quality throughout, especially the flooring. All the furniture is very comfortable. The screened in porch is lovely. It was really nice to have towels and hats to borrow. Beautiful flowers and hospitality basket awaited us upon arrival. Prompt response to requests for recommendations. The only downside was no central A/C in the living area. Bungalow has a splitter and there were portable units in the other 2 bedrooms.
